CH4 Launches Commercial-Scale Asparagopsis Growing Facility

CH4 Global has announced that it has begun production at the world’s first commercial-scale facility for growing Asparagopsis, marking a major step forward in making seaweed-based methane reduction accessible and economically viable for the global livestock industry.
CH4 Global’s EcoPark facility, which formally opened January 29, 2025 in Louth Bay, South Australia, represents a breakthrough in the commercial-scale production of Asparagopsis seaweed for livestock methane reduction.
The facility’s innovative pond-based cultivation system is projected to lower production costs to as little as one-tenth of those of conventional tank-based methods.
